One of my new shirts arrived today & got a workout too.

What do you think I like it & had a few nice comments on it as well, 



I had a couple on the Blackfly Lures Spinnerbait, XPS Crankbait, Bassmagnets Tube & a wacky rigged worm & 1 on the Whopper Plopper 90. Thanx Ish Monroe picked them up at the Spring Fishing Show Bass Unniversity classes. 




Robbie wasn't touching fish today so this is his picture, caught on a Torpedo had another one in the boat cught on a tube & didn't let me take a picture & had one on a Spinnerbait that came about 3' out of the water & said good bye lol.




The #Ardent Apex Grand, Elite & C-Force reels & #Blackflylures Spinnerbaits worked great again today. Used #Ardent , St Croix & Shimano rods.

3rd day fishing with Robbie on Bruce County Lakes

Dave & I both took our boats to Southampton & headed north about 3:20 & fished until about 9:00, Dave caught about half a dozen Smallies with a few 15" to 17", my selfies are almost always a waste of time with 1 of the 1st 3 Smallies that you could make out in the picture and the other 2 were all bright , it was a little slow at 1st but than the Crankbaits were working & a few on the Spinnerbaits as well. I lost a few on drop shots at the net.


Robbie needed the broken rod in the picture as well lol, another one of my rods done, makes for 2 after 3 he's going for a swim.





After playing with the Torpedo beside the boat with maybe 5' of line out I said why don't you through that 30' behind the boat & when it hit the water there was a huge flush & a miss as he sets the hook & reels like crazy I told he to fire it back out & after about 10' or 20' he was one very happy boy. 1st top water Bass & he claims another 1 of my lures.

Another day on a Bruce County Lake

Spinnerbaits were king today most of the day, my biggest were 19" & 19.25" and all the #Ardent Denny Brauer rods & Apex Grand, Apex Elite & Apex Pro reels worked great to bring most of them in with a few #Blackfly Lures Spinnerbait being used too.


We know who's not taking pictures next time lol



My only Pike was with #Ardent Edge Rod & C-Force Spinning Reel with #Gliss 18lb line on a tube jig, Dad caught one Pike later but no picture he throw it back in as I was getting my camera out lol.



These 2 were very full




Things switched over to Crankbaits later in the day, here are a few pictures & there were lots of smaller ones caught but no pictures taken, very nice to see the different year classes throughout the lake.




This looks smaller than it was Dad's biggest was 19.25" too.

CANCER my 5th year anniversary, Nice way to celebrate on the Lakes

Drove to Southampton to pick up Robbie and Anna to head fishing, 1st stop Gould Lake, #Blackfly Spinnerbaits and Tubes worked on a few Bass and Pike. Robbie lost the bet he wanted so he went swimming off the dock when we got back.





On the way home I stopped at Baie Dore to go for a boat ride and try for some Smallies, the #Ardent Rods and Reels worked great but the Video camera ran out of space and missed both smallies and since I thought they were being tape I didn`t take any pictures lol. next time.



July 14-16 back to Baie Dore very windy was soaked twice with waves coming over the front and/or side and no Fish lol.

2016 Canadian Nationals - Revolution Powerlifting Syndicate - Bill's day of lifting Squat, Bench & Dead Lift

Great to be able to get the day off to be there & Video his day.



GHBA clubbie Yesterday on Cook's Bay

Very tough for Gordo & I, after a hiccup 1st thing in the morning we were ready to start fishing about 8:30 & our 1st area was full of rock bass, so we moved to the rivers mouth & tried some flipp'n around the grass & Frogs around the lily pads, the river was very muddy after the storm we had the night before, than we moved to the shore line weeds & continued to catch rock bass with a bunch of Perch & Sunfish before moving deeper 8' to 10' using spinnerbaits, I caught a Largie 1.77 lbs also tried crankbaits, flipp'n jigs & jerkbaits, losing 1 bass on a Crankbait & back to catching everything but Bass & through in 1 Pike also. It was a good day on the water we just couldn't find the bass no matter where we tried, better luck next time lol. Congrats to all the winners. Gordo was getting a selfie so I thought I'd take a picture of him that's how our day went. At least the #Ardent Rods & Reels worked great. Tight Lines Richard

Another few hours out on a Bruce County lake

Very slow day today I caught a few on Flipp'n Jigs & this one on a Frog a long the edge of the lily pads with the wind blowing in on them. #Ardent Denny Brauer Umbrella Rig/Heavy Flipp'n rod & a #Ardent Apex Grand reel with #Gliss 40lb handled the fight no problem. 19.5"



Helped get someone back into Fishing

1st cast Alvin gets a Pike on a red Spinnerbait, later he gets his 1st fish ever on a Tube Jig & it was the biggest of the day, #‎Ardent‬ rods & reels with ‪#‎Gliss‬ line worked great today & ‪#‎BlackflyLures‬ Spinnerbaits did also, with a few caught on Flipp'n Jigs, Crankbaits & Tube jigs as well.











After Alvin catching the Pike on the 1st cast he waited for quite a while before he caught another one lol. Pictures are in order that they were caught & I threw a few of mine back in without taking pictures.
